Kevin Coyne...Marjory Razorblade(1973) CD(1990)[FLAC]

1990 Marjory Razorblade [Bonus Tracks] CD Virgin CDVM 2501 1 Marjory Razorblade 1:45 2 Marlene 2:42 3 Talking to No-One 2:29 4 Eastbourne Ladies 4:35 5 Old Soldier 3:51 6 I Want My Crown 4:18 7 Nasty 5:03 8 Lonesome Valley 2:55 9 House on the Hill 4:52 10 Cheat Me 3:42 11 Jackie and Edna 4:01 12 Everybody Says 4:23 13 Mummy 4:09 14 Heaven in My View 3:14 15 Karate King 3:16 16 Dog Latin 4:53 17 This Is Spain 2:08 18 Chairmans Ball 3:12 19 Good Boy 2:38 20 Chicken Wing 4:22 21 Lovesick Fool 2:18 22 Sea of Love 3:06 What a voice. I don't mean to disparage Mr Coyne's nasal appendage – it certainly doesn't seem oversized on the photos accompanying the album – but it sounds as though he's related to Cyrano de Bergerac or, more likely, Pinocchio after he's told a whole raft-load of lies! His nasal tone is not totally off-putting but it certainly is different. it's only when you play the album through a second and third time that the songs begin to take on a personality of their own. A mixture of swing, blues, folk and gospel with a cast of quaintly English characters and a narrator teetering on the edge of insanity Marjory Razorblade is a revelation. "Marlene", "Eastbourne Ladies", "Cheat Me", "Lovesick Fool", "Jackie And Edna", "Nasty" and "House On The Hill" are the tracks that are running through my head at the moment but that will, no doubt, change. And if you're looking for more examples of madness then you need go no further than "Karate King", replete with suitable Kung Fu grunts, and "Dog Latin" in which it wouldn't surprise me to learn that Coyne is actually speaking in tongues. cd ripped by dBpoweramp please seed http://dickthespic.org/2010/12/06/kevin-coyne/
